How many m are there in 8.92 km?

Answer 1

#8.92 km xx1000 = 8920# metres

In the metric system the units are converted by using powers of #10#. This means that to convert from one unit to another is simply a case of moving the decimal point.

In #1# kilometre there are #1000# metres .

In #8.92 # km there are #8.92 xx1000 = 8920# metres

Metres are smaller than kilometres, so there will more of them in a given distance.

To convert from metres to kilometres, do exactly the opposite: divide the number of metres by #1000# to convert to kilometres. Kilometres are bigger so there will be fewer of them in a given distance.

See a solution process below:

The conversion factor for kilometers to meters is:

#1"km" = 1000"m"#

To find how many meters in 8.92 kilometers we can multiply each side of the equation by #color(red)(8.92)#

#color(red)(8.92) xx 1"km" = color(red)(8.92) xx 1000"m"#

#8.92"km" = 8920"m"#

There are 8,920 meters in 8.92 kilometers
